They are mostly known as "The Nova Drift Guys" unfortunately most people hadn't heard of the game and it was also in early access untill a couple of weeks. Though, you'll likely see an influx of subs in these couple of months or weeks because the larger UA-camrs are covering Nova Drift more.

Just because I’m out volunteering at make a wish and shooting movies doesn’t mean I can’t find time for my boys! I didn’t think you guys would pull this out but you did it!
i am totally stealing the "mathmatologist" line. I have dyscalculia, which is like dyslexia but for numbers, and I have totally pulled numbers out of my ass on almost every occasion.
I felt my essence summoned. and must make the following statements. 1) Adding hot chocolate to coffee is wrong. Adding instant coffee mix to Hot chocolate is correct. 2) Swiss miss is not good hot chocolate mix. 3) The size of the screen is x by y with an area of xy. After 6 Ultra See you have a view of 1.42x by 1.42y which is an area of 2.0164xy. 4) I thought the math jokes about James were very funny.
Past 200 with a friggin _minefield_. I am in awe. Oh and the icecream ain't half bad either. ... Also, teach me how to aim these comets. I believe that's what has been holding me back all this time.
I think something like lance could work better since all those mines could compensate for Architect where it would be usually better if minefield wasn’t involved. Also it could produce many lances possibly rotating at different speeds.
ok I had to go back to watch that railshot and I had to get the speed down to .25 to actually see what James saw - but yes it was beautiful and that was also interesting because it was one that curved back in from off-screen in the first place - cool thing
Minefield benefits from both Mortar & Charged mines. Additionally, Mortar did gain benefits from targeting (but I'm not sure if it does anymore). Speccing exclusively into mine mods and increased construction speed (Support Specialist, Mine Specialist, Burnout Reactors, and Overseer helps) makes minefield pretty strong. Add Engineer into the mix, and you effectively have explosive buckshot. The -15% mine effect power of Mortar is also easily negated with increasing blast damage. Edit: 47:31 is the EXACT REASON minefield is so strong; It rewards patience and dodging/tanking with extreme damage in the form of a deadly lightshow. That -15% power really means nothing in the face of 16 simultaneous detonations (more if you go Loaded Splinter Grenades as well).
I've realized im a engineer snob, i only rewatch engineer videos. And yes i went and got ice cream for breakfast and it was mint chocolate chip the best flavor, change my mind.
Just got my best ever run the other day, it was a research into big snek on annihilation, my only regret is that i only got to like, level 60 (score was about 4.2 million, went past second star eater) My record for levels is (iirc) 94. I probably shoulda gone for less evo niches as early as i did, since that made my selection pool awful. Had i gotten a bit luckier, and made some different choices, that could have been a 5 or 6m run. Also, just as a rule of thumb, if you want to go for a crash damage build, prioritize having swords as your weapon, they scale with it very well, and it helps get you past the early-midgame before you have the tools you need to hidden power
Have you two ever considered doing a research setup for a construct build? Most constructs scale with levels to some degree, and i feel like you could get some insanely powerful things with it. I just want to see a giga turret at lvl 90 lol, imagine how many missiles it would fill the screen with
For the Algorithm!!! Ice-cream wise I do enjoy a minty chocolate chip but I think my favorite is a good Mexican hot chocolate Ice-cream or a good coffee Ice-cream
@10:49 ACKTSHUALLY one of the patch notes for 1.0 was that the velocity from calibrate now affects mines, presumably to make railgun mines better, as I don't think this benefits any other weapon.
@@Malroth00Returns oh Absolutely, there’s a million ways to supplement the burst damage from dropping all the mines at once. I’m just saying using a different shield wouldn’t cost any other points. It’s probably only slightly better than crashing into stuff, without any upgrades.
hm... I can't remember if mines can get your shield through Shielded Constructs, but if so, could you combo that with the Shockwave Shield and Polar Inversion to make mines that suck people in?
Oh god. You started with a good idea, and immediately destroyed it. This build again, BUT: NO MINEFIELD, NO BURNOUT! Both are just absolutly horrible for charged mines. No volley. Its worse than the one after homing strike for railgun. If possible, Twin strikes. AMP shield. Just for the thrust, you gonna need it. Mine specialist as usual. Defense DRONES! With all of the defense drone mods. They are a brilliant extra shield, and whenever they die, they speed up construction of your mines. Oh, and Calibrate works with loaded mines, the velocity increase at least does, which is exactly what you want anyway with railgun. My current limit with this build is wave 732. Yes, I killed wave 720 suneater. :) Have yet to find another build that even gets this far. Past wave 500, stuff just slams into the screen, there just is no time to aim and fire. If you want some screenshots of my attempts with this build (to see all the mods I took), just say a word.
petition to change "bravado" to "more sauce"
I second this petition
No - make “nah I’d win” (:
I feel like evolutionary niche is more fitting for "more sauce"
Saucier sauce
I third this petition
I will never understand why this channel doesn't have 1M subscribers.

had to eat a whole quart and a half of chocolate truffle ice cream when the hurricane knocked out the power
I went with chocolate peanut butter ice cream
“Swiss miss instant piss.” Lives in my mind rent free.

Yeah, if I use minefield it's an addition to doing carrier shielded constructs 😅

Lee, you got hit by a laser.
you have created the reverse speed run. Well done.

...
Also, teach me how to aim these comets. I believe that's what has been holding me back all this time.
lorking in cemments, very warm from the heat you two bring
on the note of coffee, I actually liked substituting honey for sugar to mix in then adding milk.
One hour and fifteen minutes, man, this run must be a banger, let's see how far he got 😂
this one was had my ribs sore from laughter.. you two clearly have fun doing these! Keep these shenanigans going!
This was far more entertaining than most of the other runs. It was unique, and I think this lets Lee's skill shine!
I think something like lance could work better since all those mines could compensate for Architect where it would be usually better if minefield wasn’t involved. Also it could produce many lances possibly rotating at different speeds.
I'm just here to gaslight Lee.
I don't think you know what that means
Oh yeah, Minefield build! Awesome results!

I wanna icecream now
Man ice cream is so good.
I've been added hot chocolate packets to my coffee for years. Good stuff!
You had me at “Minefield of Dreams”

almost being a relative? sounds like there's a story there

No please leave me alone!
here take everything...
💥💥💥
🤣🤣🤣
As a person who doesn’t like icecream I am not gruntled.
Rocky road is my favorite but mint cholocate chip and cookies and cream are close seconds and thirds.
For the Algorithm!!! Ice-cream wise I do enjoy a minty chocolate chip but I think my favorite is a good Mexican hot chocolate Ice-cream or a good coffee Ice-cream
Soooo Beetlejuice build? Maybe the invisible body makes a return or something with 'triple' shot? - Nathan
I had gotten a delicious Heath Bar Brownie and Ice cream cup from Dairy Queen 😊
rocky road, in more ways than one
Mines and Ramming build would work well together
I never realized that the shield boys _healed_ the guys they shield
Edit: Sometimes I like to get m&m chocolate ice cream
I would like to see a run with a less used weapon like the tentacles

I Feel like just taking halo as your shield would have some good supplemental damage.
Or Ally and wingman, you'd have 2 continious railgun users stapled to your front

Coffee + hot chocolate is awesome
Wait a second- if pulse scales with battlefield size, and one of your best runs was a huge battlefield… would it be even better?
petition juggernaut is jimmy
I got strawberry ice cream, a litre of it
I think a pacifist run would be pretty interesting to watch. So may wee-woos
I feel like a true pacifism run would require starting in draft mode so you can actually get some levels.
Damn whats up with the Swiss Miss hate, its the only Hot Chocolate i drink that's within my budget (to be fair i add Blue Heaven Syrup to it).
50:00 funny enough, Nova Drift has done a collab with Quantum Protocol, which is a turn-based card game.
Hear me out, stealth charge shotgun flack.
So, you're saying we need a darker and grittier Barney the Dinosaur reboot?
Now I'm curious: How does Minefield work with Mortar Rounds? Do you shoot multiple mines at once?
You've mentioned minefield several times. You keep saying it's bad, but I've never seen it in action and didn't quite get why.
I get it.
Minefield charged sun build? Like the 8 spoked star build, but with many mines:)
I'm going to get ice cream...
Back from DQ... I hope a French silk blizzard counts as ice cream. It's time to start my second watch....
Double tap chocolate chip
I like ice cream
hm... I can't remember if mines can get your shield through Shielded Constructs, but if so, could you combo that with the Shockwave Shield and Polar Inversion to make mines that suck people in?
techniclee ... the best kind of lee ?
I like icecream! 🍧
Minefield is cool, but sadly need to turn off auto deploy mines for it, maybe autodeploy could count for minefield, but is prolly hard to code.
As a developer, I don't think it'd be too hard but really depends on how it's implemented.
What you think are the chances of seeing you two doing the nightcrawler build again?
Oh god. You started with a good idea, and immediately destroyed it.
This build again, BUT: NO MINEFIELD, NO BURNOUT! Both are just absolutly horrible for charged mines.
No volley. Its worse than the one after homing strike for railgun. If possible, Twin strikes.

So apotheosis stealth body? I can't speak for but i want to see the pacifist run
How do you throw all the mines at once and not individually
Minefield is honestly better _without_ loaded mines.
Just tried this with mortar. And it's worse. Especially the aiming part, believe it or not. You DO fire all your mines at once though.
Been a while since I've played this game, but did loaded mines really need being? From my memory it was mostly just for meme builds...
Depending on the build? Loaded mines can actually be good enough to go full Overseer.
You're not being gaslit
What is the seven deadly x's?
Real world answer: Scott Pilgrim. Nova Drift answer: Taking on 7 Challengers at the same time.
@UltraC oh, OH. I took 4 once... now you've given me a challenge.
what is gaslighting?
Wow
So pathetic level 40 progress, it was really impressive! Overseer and Railgun are definitely weak early
a comment
33:28 one of the shield drones shielded a small box
Maybe give Mindfield Mortar a try nexy time? It's actually pretty fun.
to watch, at least.
